FIELD

Embodiments of the present disclosure relate generally to communication systems. More particularly, embodiments of the present disclosure relate to encrypted communication systems for secure communication.

BACKGROUND

In general commercial wireless networks do not encrypt and protect user information data that is transmitted over the air. Data security and integrity are expected to be handled by an end-user application. Most end-user applications that traverse via the Internet Protocol (IP) network rely on public key encryption methods for both end-user authentication and data security.

With ubiquity of wireless local area networks in public spaces, commercial wireless industry standards bodies have implemented an additional layer of security that serves as gatekeeping to grant access to only authorized users; i.e., users who have a correct network encryption-decryption key. An over-the-air transmitted radio frequency (RF) signal, however, is not protected from eavesdroppers. In contrast, most military wireless networks support both end-user data security as well as protection of over-the-air transmitted RF signal. However, such networks are closed and proprietary and generally cannot interoperate with commercially available wireless devices such as cellular phones, personal computers and tablets.

SUMMARY

A system and methods for secure communication using modified commercial equipment are disclosed. A network packet comprising an encrypted network address for transmission security comprising an unencrypted network address encrypted by a first Global Positioning System (GPS) time and a first pseudo random number is received. The encrypted network address is decrypted using the first GPS time and the first pseudo random number to provide the unencrypted network address. The network packet is transmitted based on the unencrypted network address. In this manner, embodiments of the disclosure make use of low cost high bandwidth commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) networks to transmit classified data.

In an embodiment, a method for secure communication receives a network packet comprising an encrypted network address comprising an unencrypted network address encrypted by a first GPS time and a first pseudo random number. The method further decrypts the encrypted network address using the first GPS time and the first pseudo random number to provide the unencrypted network address. The method further transmits the network packet based on the unencrypted network address.

In another embodiment, a system for secure communication comprises a receiver module, a decryption module, and a transmitter module. The receiver module is operable to receive a network packet comprising an encrypted network address comprising an unencrypted network address encrypted by a first GPS time and a first pseudo random number. The decryption module is operable to decrypt the encrypted network address to provide an unencrypted network address. The transmitter module is operable to transmit the network packet based on the unencrypted network address.

In a further embodiment, a computer readable storage medium comprises computer-executable instructions for performing a method for secure communication. The method executed by the computer-executable instructions receives a network packet comprising an encrypted network address comprising an unencrypted network address encrypted by a first GPS time and a first pseudo random number. The method further decrypts the encrypted network address using the first GPS time and the first pseudo random number to provide the unencrypted network address. The method further transmits the network packet based on the unencrypted network address.

Descriptions of specific devices, techniques, and applications are provided only as examples. Modifications to the examples described herein will be readily apparent to those of ordinary skill in the art, and the general principles defined herein may be applied to other examples and applications without departing from the spirit and scope of the disclosure. Furthermore, there is no intention to be bound by any expressed or implied theory presented in the preceding field, background, summary or the following detailed description. The present disclosure should be accorded scope consistent with the claims, and not limited to the examples described and shown herein.

Embodiments of the disclosure may be described herein in terms of functional and/or logical block components and various processing steps. It should be appreciated that such block components may be realized by any number of hardware, software, and/or firmware components configured to perform the specified functions. For the sake of brevity, conventional techniques and components related to standard communication systems, military communication systems, network protocols, and other functional aspects of the systems (and the individual operating components of the systems) may not be described in detail herein.

Embodiments of the disclosure are described herein in the context of a practical non-limiting application, namely, a secure communication for a mobile phone application. Embodiments of the disclosure, however, are not limited to such mobile phone applications, and the techniques described herein may also be utilized in other applications. For example, embodiments may be applicable to a desktop computer, a laptop or notebook computer, a Droid™ phone, an iPhone™, a mainframe, a server, a client, or any other type of special or general purpose internally or externally GPS enabled computing device as may be desirable or appropriate for a given application or environment.

Other embodiments may be utilized and changes may be made without departing from the scope of the exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure.

With proliferation of inexpensive commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) wireless devices (due to economies of scale) and rapid technology advancements in commercial wireless standards, it is desirable to modify both COTS wireless devices and their associated network design such that in tandem military-grade security is offered for both end-user data as well as over-the-air RF signals.

Embodiments of disclosure allow any closed commercial network to be used for secure and classified high bandwidth communication, linking commercial networks with any isolated network such as network for communicating with: drones, aircraft, ground force hand held radios, or other secure network.

FIG. 1 is an illustration of an exemplary wireless communication environment 100 for transmitting and receiving secure information according to an embodiment of the disclosure.

The wireless communication environment 100 comprises an isolated network 102, an ad-hoc network 104, and an infrastructure network 106, a plurality of mobile communication devices 108 each comprising an encryption system 300 for secure communication within the wireless communication environment 100. Each of the isolated network 102, the ad-hoc network 104, and the infrastructure network 106, may comprise, for example but without limitation, an internet protocol network, a circuit-switched network, a packet-switched network, and a wireless communication network.

The mobile communication devices 108 each comprise the encryption system 300 as explained in more detail below in context of discussion of FIG. 3. The encryption system 300 (system 300) comprises a high grade transmission security (TRANSEC) that allows the mobile communication device 108 to communicate with the isolated network 102 at high bandwidth (e.g., 50 Mbps) for data (e.g., maps, voice, video) communication. The encryption system 300 allows any closed commercial network such as the ad-hoc network 104, and the infrastructure network 106, to be used for secure and classified high bandwidth communication via a communication link 114. In this manner, these closed commercial networks can be linked with any isolated network such as the isolated network 102.

The mobile communication devices 108, can communicate:

-   -   peer-to-peer in the ad-hoc network 104 via a communication         channel 110;     -   base-to-user in the infrastructure network 106 via a         communication channel 112 to a base station 116;     -   bridge the ad-hoc network 104 that interconnects with an         isolated communication network;     -   bridge the infrastructure network 106 that interconnects with         the isolated network 102;     -   bridge the ad-hoc network 104 that connects with another         peer-to-peer or infrastructure mobile network via the isolated         network 102 used as a backbone transit network; and     -   bridge the infrastructure network 106 that connects with another         peer-to-peer or infrastructure mobile network via an isolated         communication network used as a backbone transit network, or         other communication channel.

The mobile communication devices 108 may comprise, for example but without limitation, a desktop computer, a laptop or notebook computer, a Droid™ phone, an iPhone™, a mainframe, a server, a client, or any other type of special or general purpose internally or externally GPS enabled computing device as may be desirable or appropriate for a given application or environment.

The isolated network 102 may comprise communication channels configured to support, for example but without limitation, Wideband Networking Waveform (WNW), Enhanced Position Location Reporting System (EPLRS), Soldier Radio Waveform (SRW), Satellite Communications 165 (SATCOM 165), Demand Assigned Multiple Access (DAMA), Mobile User Objective System (MUOS), Single Channel Ground and Airborne Radio System (SINCGARS), or other secure network. The isolated network 102 can be used for communication with, for example but without limitation, drones, aircraft, ground force hand held radios, or other secure device.

The ad-hoc network 104 and the infrastructure network 106 may comprise a closed commercial network comprising communication channels 110/112 configured to support industry standards communication protocols such as, but without limitation, the Third Generation Partnership Project Long Term Evolution (3GPP LTE)™, Third Generation Partnership Project 2 Ultra Mobile Broadband (3 Gpp2 UMB)™, Time Division-Synchronous Code Division Multiple Access (TD-SCDMA)™, and Wireless Interoperability for Microwave Access (WiMAX)™, and other usually used communication protocols. The communication channels 110/112 may also be configured to support alternate, or additional, wireless data communication protocols, including Wi-Fi™, Bluetooth™, and so on.

FIG. 2 is an illustration of an encryption process 200 of a network packet 224 according to an embodiment of the disclosure. The network packet 224 comprises a network address 202 (unencrypted network address 202) and a message data 204. The network address 202 may be encrypted via a Transmission Security (TRANSEC) using a GPS time of day 212 (GPS time 212) and a pseudo random number 214 encryption to provide an encrypted network address 208. The message data 204 may be encrypted via a communication security (COMSEC) encryption to provide an encrypted data 210.

An encryption module 222 receives the GPS time 212, and the pseudo random number 214 at an encryptor 218 therein. The encryptor 218 utilizes the GPS time 212, and the pseudo random number 214 to provide an encryption keyword 216 (keyword 216). The keyword 216 may be exclusive-or'ed by an XOR module 220 with the network address 202 to provide the encrypted network address 208.

The TRANSEC is a component of communications security (COMSEC) that results from application of measures designed to protect transmissions from interception and exploitation by means other than cryptanalysis. Goals of transmission security comprise low probability of interception (LPI), low probability of detection (LPD), Antijam—resistance to jamming, or other characteristic. Embodiments of the disclosure can be used for LPI through use of TRANSEC cover using, for example, a GPS time of day such as the GPS time 212 and a pseudo random number such as the pseudo random number 214 for encryption of the network address 202 for transmission through a closed commercial network such as the ad-hoc network 104, and the infrastructure network 106.

Encryption is a method of converting plaintext into an unreadable an unintelligible format called ciphertext. The process of converting ciphertext back to a recognizable and readable format is called decryption. Using the process of encryption, a user can store or send sensitive information over public networks (e.g., using existing U.S. SIPRNet protocols) in a more secure manner than just sending or storing data in plaintext. When intended viewers of the data wish to access the encrypted data, they use the process of decryption to convert the ciphertext back to a readable format.

Cryptography can be generally defined as the science of using mathematics to encrypt and decrypt data enabling the storage and transmission of sensitive data in a secure manner. A cryptosystem comprises a cryptographic algorithm, or cipher, which is a mathematical function to encrypt and decrypt data and all of the possible keys and protocols that make it work. Using a key, the cryptographic cipher can be used to convert plaintext to and from ciphertext.

FIG. 3 is an illustration of a schematic functional block diagram of an encrypted routing system 300 (system 300, encryption system 300 in FIG. 1) according to an embodiment of the disclosure.

The embodiment shown in FIG. 3 may have functions, material, and structures that are similar to the embodiments shown in FIGS. 1-2. Therefore common features, functions, and elements may not be redundantly described here.

The system 300 may comprise an encryption module 302 (222 in FIG. 2), a decryption module 304, a receiver module 306, a transmitter module 308, a network communication module 310, a processor module 312, and a memory module 314. The system 300 generally comprises a physical housing (not shown).

The illustrated system 300 depicts a simple embodiment for ease of description. These and other elements of the system 300 are interconnected together, allowing communication between the various elements of the system 300. In one embodiment, these and other elements of the system 300 may be interconnected together via a data communication bus 316. The system 300 may be implemented in the mobile communication device 108 as explained above.

The system 300 receives the network packet 224 (FIG. 2) comprising the encrypted network address 208 and the encrypted data 210, decrypts the encrypted network address 208 to provide unencrypted network address, and transmit the network packet 224 based on the unencrypted network address.

The encryption module 302 (222 in FIG. 2) is operable to encrypt the network packet 224 as explained above. Additionally, the encryption module 302 also calculates next stage network address for the network packet through the closed commercial network such as the ad-hoc network 104, and the infrastructure network 106, and encrypts the next stage network address using a second GPS time and a second pseudo random number to provide the encrypted network address 208. In an embodiment, the second GPS time may be the first GPS time and the second pseudo random number may be the first pseudo random number. In other embodiments, the second GPS time may be different from the first GPS time, and the second pseudo random number may be different from the first pseudo random number.

The decryption module 304 is operable to decrypt the encrypted network address 208 (FIG. 2) to provide the unencrypted network address 202. The decryption module 304 receives the network packet 224 from the receiver module 306. The network packet 224 comprises the encrypted network address 208 comprising the unencrypted network address 202 encrypted by the GPS time 212 (FIG. 2) and the pseudo random number 214 (FIG. 2). The decryption module 304 decrypts the encrypted network address 208 using the GPS time 212 and the pseudo random number 214 to provide the unencrypted network address 202. The network packet 224 can then be transmitted based on the unencrypted network address 202 by the transmitter module 308.

The receiver module 306 is operable to receive the network packet 224 via an antenna 318. The network packet 224 comprises the encrypted network address 208 comprising an unencrypted network address encrypted by a first GPS time such as the GPS time 212 and a first pseudo random number such as the pseudo random number 214. The network packet 224 may also comprise an encrypted data such as the encrypted data 210.

The transmitter module 308 is operable to transmit the network packet 224 based on the unencrypted network address 202.

The network communication module 310 is operable to enable the communication channels 110/112/114 for communication between, the ad-hoc network 104, the infrastructure network 106, the isolated network 102, or any other internet protocol network circuit-switched network, and packet-switched network.

The receiver module 306 and the transmitter module 308 are coupled to their respective antenna 318/320. Although in a simple system 300 only one antenna 318 for receiving information and only one antenna 320 for transmitting information may be required, a more sophisticated system 300 may be provided with multiple and/or more complex antenna configurations. Additionally, although not shown in this FIG. 3, those skilled in the art will recognize that a transmitter may transmit to more than one receiver, and that multiple transmitters may transmit to the same receiver.

Processor module 312 may be implemented, or realized, with a general purpose processor, a content addressable memory, a digital signal processor, an application specific integrated circuit, a field programmable gate array, any suitable programmable logic device, discrete gate or transistor logic, discrete hardware components, or any combination thereof, designed to perform the functions described herein. In this manner, a processor may be realized as a microprocessor, a controller, a microcontroller, a state machine, or the like.

A processor may also be implemented as a combination of computing devices, e.g., a combination of a digital signal processor and a microprocessor, a plurality of microprocessors, one or more microprocessors in conjunction with a digital signal processor core, or any other such configuration. In practice, processor modules 312 comprise processing logic that is configured to carry out the functions, techniques, and processing tasks associated with the operation of the system 300.

In particular, the processing logic is configured to support the secure communication method of the system 300. For example, the processor module 312 may be suitably configured to direct the system 300 to encrypt the unencrypted network address 202 by the first GPS time 212 and the first pseudo random number 214 to provide the encrypted network address 208, and transmit the network packet 224 based on the unencrypted network address 202. For another example, the processor module 312 may be suitably configured to direct the system 300 to decrypt the encrypted network address 208 by the first GPS time 212 and the first pseudo random number 214 to provide the unencrypted network address 202, and transmit the network packet 224 based on the unencrypted network address 202.
